[Opensim-users] Memory usage

https://www.jetbrains.com/dotmemory/ dotmemory has been relatively
successful at identifying memory issues in the past.

That said, it's not free and there may be free alternatives.....  but be
advised you want one that supports managed memory...    and one that works
well with Mono.Addins.    Many free ones in the past have had issues
dynamically loading modules with Mono.addins.   If the modules are not
loaded, you will see the server come up with no regions and it will be
pretty useless for testing.   Testing physics is a bit harder because it is
both managed and unmanaged...   so you'll need to examine the pinned
memory.    Also, note that while running the simulator in a profiler such
as dotMemory, it will run noticeably slower depending on how you do the
profiling.
